Brooding melodramatic, in plain sight of whim
left shoe-strings back home, tried and plundered.
A stray thought provoked strange fancies,
fey people, dwarfs, gremlins--
I can't take them too seriously,
for the magic of that world is broken!
Over a cup of English tea,
I can see the willowy road still waiting.
Yet the fey are wise in their own wits,
but I can't be expected to go along with them.
